The effect of air velocity on slugs in a confined channel

open access: yesFlow Measurement and Instrumentation, 2021
The present work focuses on the study of slugs occurring in a two-phase flow of a confined rectangular channel: conditions of appearance and effect on the flow behavior. Three-dimensional numerical simulations have been carried out to examine the effect of superficial air velocity on flow behavior.

Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) modelling of transient flow in the intermittent gas lift

open access: yesPetroleum Research, 2020
A computational fluid dynamics model (CFD) is developed for intermittent gas lift techniques. The simulation is conducted for a test section of 18 m vertical tube with 0.076 m in diameter using air as injection gas and oil as a formation fluid.

Effect of Changing Crude Oil Grade on Slug Characteristics and Flow Induced Mechanical Stresses in Pipes

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Slug multiphase flow is known to be the most prevalent regime because of its extensive encounters associated with chaotic behaviour, complexity and instability that cause significant fluctuations in operating conditions and thus lead to undesirable ...
